France Spelic, the visionary (Our Lady calls him Smaverski),
started to receive messages from Mary, in the year of 1989. On December 9, 1989, during
his visit to Medjugorje, he was instructed to renew prayer on a forgotten and abandoned
place. In conversation with the priest, Joze Razinger, he learned that Kurescek could be
the place.

On January 29, 1990, the visionary received another message
from Mary. "Go to Kurescek. Stay faithful. I am the Queen of Peace."
There was no more doubt about the place. The church was quickly renewed and on August
1992, it was blessed by the bishop Alojz Sustar from Ljubljana.

People were turning for help to the Queen of
Peace - Mother of God - on this place for centuries. It was during World War II that the
church on this hill was demolished and desecrated.

France Spelic was born on September
24th 1927 in Smaver, in Slovenia, to a poor family. His childhood was full of
difficulties.

He joined the Liberation Army when he was not yet 15 years
of age (during World war II), and was trained to be an atheist and communist.

In 1946 he married a widow Sida, becoming a stepfather to
the son of his wife; he also had two daughters of his own with Sida.

At first he was an officer under the leadership of
communism. He resigned from his position as officer and became a teacher with a much
smaller income. In 1954 he got hold of a Holy Bible and started to read it.

This was his turning point to conversion.

He also withdrew from the communist party. The consequences
for this were very severe. There was constant interrogation and harassment.

Nevertheless, with all his heart, he wanted to be a priest.
Without any hope of becoming a priest, he still started to study theology at the age of
41.

In the fifth year of his study his wife became ill with
multiple sclerosis. He lovingly took care of her until her death on December 24th 1992.

In spite of many obstacles and opposition, on November 21st
1993, at the age of 66, he eventually became a priest as he had beenn promised by the Holy
Mother, Mary.

It should also be mentioned that at that time painful
wounds started appearing on his body, similar to St. Francis of Assisi and Padre Pio who
also received the stigmata.

Our Lady wants, that everybody, who accepts him, calls him
"father" as he becomes a father to many, not just a brother.

In March of 1990 Our
Lady commissioned: "Prepare carefully the meeting of all those who wish to
reconcile themselves, who wish to forgive all, so that they may be forgiven. Invite all to
this meeting who want to share in divine peace, without regard to nationality. The meeting
shall be in May, 1991. That shall become the month of reconciliation. Begin with May 1 and
continue on all Saturdays of that month. Prepare yourselves already now with fasting and
prayer."

The preparations were serious and many faithful people
participated in those reconciliation meetings. Next month, June 26, the war in Slovenia
started and it was over in 10 days. The war in Slovenia was the beginning of the crisis in
the former Yugoslavia.

In 1995 the Queen of Peace
said: "The world did not recognize how Slovenia was saved from the atrocities of
war by the grace of God because of a small number of my children who faithfully followed
what I had commissioned them to do."

The opinion
of the former archbishop Dr. Alois Sustar over the messages

Father Marijan Sef asked the Commission for the
investigation of the Marian apparitions, which was established by Dr. Alois Sustar, with
the following three questions:

1. Is in the introduction to the booklet MARIJA KRALJICA
MIRU NA KURESCKU (Mary The Queen of Peace on Kurescek - which is published on the WEB and
which contains the messages of the Queen of Peace) possibly contains something, which is
not in the agreement with the teachings of the church or the church teaching profession?

2. Are contents of the messages in conformity with the
teachings of the church, the church teaching profession and with the principles of the
moral teachings of the catholic church?

3. Can we accept the recommendations that are contained in
the messages as stimulus for the own spiritual life and can they be advised also to the
others ?

The chairman of the commission, professor Dr. F. Orazem,
answered that the commission gives no information over the things, which it examines.
Therefore it cannot answer to the posed questions. The commission's opinion is that
concerning these questions everyone is to depend on his own conscience.

P. M. Sef turned with these three questions to the
archbishop and got the following response:

"To the first two questions, given to the members of
the Commission in the letter dated 31.10.1993, I can give a positive answer, while for the
answer to the third question I ask a little patience until the next session of the
Commission when I will get their opinion."

The response of the archbishop means that neither in the
introduction nor in the text of the booklet MARIJA KRALJICA MIRU NA KURESCKU contains
things, which contradict the faith and moral teachings of the church.

The answer to the third question obtained by P. M. Sef from
the archbishop at the beginning of of May, 1994: "It is possible ".

Thus still no opinion was delivered for
the supernatural origin of the messages.

" No one can prevent
you from witnessing what you have experienced, in the places of grace. We are live
witnesses. Do not be restless, if the Church does not publicly accept some visions and
messages. This process requires from the Church time and wisdom. This does not exclude
witnessing; these have to be based on truthfulness.

Witnessing
to the representatives of the Church and to the public. Everything should be given to the
judgement of Church representatives. All written testimonies should be sent to the care
taker of my sanctuary at Kurescek. He will care so the testimonies that have a truthful
base will be published.

Do not be afraid of those, who do not accept me, even those
are my daughters and sons. My presence here and the authenticity of my messages is to be
judged by the Church.

I say to you again. Do not try to prove my presence here
and the authenticity of my messages. All of this I will prove. You must be quiet so I may
be heard " (June 6th, 1998)
